Appendix III Statutory Acknowledgements APPENDIX III APPENDIX Appendix III Statutory acknowledgements Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki APPENDIX III APPENDIX Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki Appendix III Statutory acknowledgements 1. Statutory acknowledgements A statutory acknowledgement is a means by which the Crown has formally acknowledged the statements made by the iwi of the particular cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of the iwi with the statutory areas. 1.1 Purposes of statutory acknowledgements The purposes of statutory acknowledgements are (a) to require consent authorities, the Environment Court and the Historic Places Trust to have regard to the statutory acknowledgements; (b) to require relevant consent authorities to forward summaries of resource consent applications for activities that would affect the area of which the statutory acknowledgement applies to the governance entity; and (c) to enable the governance entity and any member of the relevant iwi to cite a statutory acknowledgement as evidence of the association of the iwi with the area to which the statutory acknowledgement relates. 1.2 Having regard to statutory acknowledgements Consent authorities must have regard to a statutory acknowledgement relating to a statutory area in forming an opinion in accordance with sections 93 to 94C of the Resource III APPENDIX Management Act 1991 as to whether the governance entity is a person who may be adversely affected by the granting of a resource consent for activities within, adjacent to, or impacting directly on, the statutory area. 1.3 Recording of statutory acknowledgements on statutory plans Local authorities with jurisdiction in an area that includes a statutory area must attach information recording the statutory acknowledgement to all statutory plans that wholly or partly cover the statutory area. The attachment of information is for the purpose of public information only, and the information is not part of the statutory plan or subject to the provisions of Schedule 1 of the Resource Management Act 1991. In summary, the Taranaki Regional Council is required to attach information in relation to statutory acknowledgements to its Regional Policy Statement and regional plans. This document is therefore attached to the Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki in accordance with the relevant iwi deed of settlement legislation. Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki A PPENDIX III Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki Appendix IIIA Ngati Ruanui statutory acknowledgements 1. ATTACHMENT TO THE REGIONAL COASTAL PLAN FOR TARANAKI IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 93(1) OF THE NGATI RUANUI CLAIMS SETTLEMENT ACT 2003 A statutory acknowledgement is a means by which the Crown has formally acknowledged the statements made by Ngati Ruanui of the particular cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of Ngati Ruanui with the statutory areas. The statutory areas are described in the Schedules of the Ngati Ruanui Claims Settlement Act 2003. Four statutory acknowledgements have been made which relate to the effect of the Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki. These are: • Statutory Acknowledgement for Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui Schedule 6 Ngati Ruanui Claims Settlement Act 2003 • Statutory Acknowledgement for Tangahoe River Schedule 7 Ngati Ruanui Claims Settlement Act 2003 • Statutory Acknowledgement for Whenuakura River Schedule 8 Ngati Ruanui Claims Settlement Act 2003 • Statutory Acknowledgement for Patea River Schedule 9 Ngati Ruanui Claims Settlement Act 2003 III APPENDIX The full copy of the schedules is attached. All of the above areas are shown in the attached maps. 2. STATUTORY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 2.1 STATUTORY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FOR TE MOANANUI A KUPE O NGATI RUANUI Schedule 6 Statutory area The area to which this statutory acknowledgement applies is the area known as Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui (coastal area) as shown on SO 14739. Preamble Under section 88, the Crown acknowledges the statement by Ngati Ruanui of the cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of Ngati Ruanui with Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui (coastal area) as set out below. Cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of Ngati Ruanui with Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui The resources found within Te Moananui A Kupe have, since time immemorial, provided the people of Ngati Ruanui with a constant supply of food resources. The hidden reefs provided koura, paua, kina, pupu, papaka, pipi, tuatua, and many other species of reef inhabitants. Hapuka, moki, kanae, mako, and patiki swim freely between the many reefs that can be found stretching out into the spiritual waters of Te Moananui A Kupe and along the Ngati Ruanui coastline. Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki Names such as Rangatapu, Ohawe Tokotoko, Waihi, Waokena, Tangahoe, Manawapou, Taumaha, Manutahi, Pipiri, Kaikura, Whitikau, Kenepuru, Te Pou a Turi, Rangitawhi, and Whenuakura depict the whereabouts of either a fishing ground or fishing reef. All along the shoreline from Rangatapu to Whenuakura food can be gathered, depending on the tides, weather, and time of year. Tragedies of the sea are also linked to these reefs. Ngati Ruanui oral history records the sinking off Tangahoe of a Chinese trade ship that had just been loaded with a cargo of flax. When the bodies were recovered and brought to shore, none of them had any eyes. The people of Ngati Hine believe that they did something wrong and in turn were punished by the Ngati Ruanui taniwha named Toi, kaitiaki (guardian) of the fishing reefs and grounds, who is renowned to this day to eat the eyes of his victims. Purposes of statutory acknowledgement Under section 89, and without limiting the rest of this schedule, the only purposes of this statutory acknowledgement are— (a) to require consent authorities, the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, or the Environment Court to have regard to this statutory acknowledgement in relation to Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui, as provided for in sections 90 to 92; and (b) to require consent authorities to forward summaries of resource consent applications to the governance entity, as provided for in section 94; and (c) to enable the governance entity and any member of Ngati Ruanui to cite this statutory acknowledgement as evidence of the association of Ngati Ruanui with Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui, as provided for in section 95. Limitations on effect of statutory acknowledgement A PPENDIX III (1) Except as expressly provided in sections 89 to 92 and 95,— (a) this statutory acknowledgement does not affect, and is not to be taken into account by, any person exercising a power or performing a function or duty under any statute, regulation, or bylaw; and (b) No person, in considering a matter or making a decision or recommendation under any statute, regulation, or bylaw, may give greater or lesser weight to the association of Ngati Ruanui with Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui described in this statutory acknowledgement than that person would give under the relevant statute, regulation, or bylaw if this statutory acknowledgement did not exist in respect of Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui. (2) Except as expressly provided in subpart 5 of Part 5, this statutory acknowledgement does not affect the lawful rights or interests of a person who is not a party to the deed of settlement. (3) Except as expressly provided in subpart 5 of Part 5, this statutory acknowledgement does not have the effect of granting, creating, or providing evidence of an estate or interest in, or any rights relating to, Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui. (4) Clause (1)(b) does not limit clause (1)(a). No limitation on the Crown This statutory acknowledgement does not preclude the Crown from providing a statutory acknowledgement to a person other than Ngati Ruanui in respect of Te Moananui A Kupe O Ngati Ruanui. 2.2 STATUTORY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FOR TANGAHOE RIVER Schedule 7 Statutory area The area to which this statutory acknowledgement applies is the area known as the Tangahoe River, as shown on SO 14740. Regional Coastal Plan for Taranaki Preamble Under section 88, the Crown acknowledges the statement by Ngati Ruanui of the cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of Ngati Ruanui with the Tangahoe River as set out below. Cultural, spiritual, historical, and traditional association of Ngati Ruanui with the Tangahoe River Ngati Ruanui history informs us that the people of the Kahui Maunga (mountain people of the highest rank) inhabited the South Taranaki area prior to the arrival of the Aotea Waka. They in turn were vanquished and enveloped through warfare and intermarriage into the Aotea, Ruanui-a Pokiwa history. One of the areas in which these people were renowned to have flourished is known as the Tangahoe River and valley. The late Ueroa (Charlie) Ngarewa, an elder of both Tangahoe and Ngati Hine descent, gave one version of the origin of the name Tangahoe. He said the name Tangahoe was given to the river because of an incident that occurred, in which the steering oar was lost from a large deep-sea fishing waka as it attempted to return to the Tauranga waka. The comment was made that ``if there were 2 steering oars like that of the Waka Tipua of Turi Ariki, then the flight to its resting place would remain true.'' Turi was the Ariki (Rangatira of highest rank) of the Aotea Waka. Tangahoe: the steering oars of Turi Ariki The Tangahoe River has been a major supply of food and water resources to its people both prior to, and since, the arrival of the Aotea Waka. The valley, like the rest of the southern lands, was a fertile paradise. Because of the mild temperatures, it was without extremes and promoted lush vegetation that was checked only by the occasional equinoctial weather patterns. Birds such as manunui (which made its nests amongst the koromiko bushes), kereru (the food of nga Ariki), pukeko (the treasured species brought on the Aotea Waka), tiwaiwaka (the guardian left by Kupe), kahu (the sentinel), kakapo, kiwi, korimako, miromiro (the custodians of the forest), and pipiwharauroa (the heralder of the new year) flourished in the berry-filled trees, like the koromiko, kohia, hinau, piripiri, mamaku, and rewarewa at the side of the eel- and koura-filled creeks.

  • 10. South Taranaki
    10. South Taranaki Fighting in South Taranaki began when General Cameron’s invasion army marched north from Whanganui on 24 January 1865. This was a major New Zealand campaign, exceeded in the number of Pākehā troops only by the Waikato War a year earlier. A chain of redoubts protected communications, notably on each bank of the Waitotara, Patea, Manawapou and Waingongoro rivers. Pā were mostly inland, at or near the bush edge, and were left alone. The invasion halted at Waingongoro River on the last day of March 1865. British troops then stayed on at the redoubts, while colonial forces took Māori land in return for service, with local fortifications put up for refuge and defence. On 30 December 1865, General Chute marched north from Whanganui on a very different campaign. By the time his combined British Army, colonial and Whanganui Māori force returned on 9 February 1866, seven fortified pā and 21 kāinga had been attacked and taken in search and destroy operations. When British regiments left South Taranaki later that year, colonial troops took over the garrison role. Titokowaru’s 1868–69 campaign was an outstanding strategic episode of the New Zealand Wars. Colonial troops were defeated at Te Ngutu o te Manu and Moturoa and forced back to Whanganui, abandoning Pākehā settlement north of Kai Iwi but for posts at Patea and Wairoa (Waverley). The Māori effort failed early in 1869 when Tauranga Ika, the greatest of Titokowaru’s pā, was given up without a fight. In the years that followed, Pākehā settlers on Māori land were protected by Armed Constabulary and militia posts.

The forest remnant is located within the Matemateaonga Ecological District and lies in the Tangahoe River catchment. Campbell's Bush is a small (1.4ha) lowland forest remnant owned by the South Taranaki District Council as a Scenic Reserve. The bush remnant is only 900 metres west of the Rotokare Scenic Reserve and is within the Rotokare Reserve Trust 'halo' management area. Ecological Features Flora The high canopy at Campbell’s Bush is dominated by pukatea, tawa and swamp maire with occasional rewarewa and titoki. The understory is recovering well including species such as kawakawa, kanono, pigeonwood, mahoe and turepo and has become dense in places. Native ferns are well established in places and are establishing wider including shining spleenwort, sickle spleenwort, hen and chicken fern etc. Swamp maire (Regionally Distinctive) is present in good numbers and is notable for this site. Fauna The reserve will definitely be receiving spill over from the predator fenced Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve and also benefiting from the halo pest animal control programme in this area. Tui were generally in numbers higher than usual for a small site.

  • Soldiers & Colonists
    SOLDIERS & COLONISTS Imperial Soldiers as Settlers in Nineteenth-Century New Zealand John M. McLellan A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Victoria University of Wellington 2017 i Abstract The approximately 18,000 imperial troops who arrived in New Zealand with the British regiments between 1840 and 1870 as garrison and combat troops, did not do so by choice. However, for the more than 3,600 non-commissioned officers and rank and file soldiers who subsequently discharged from the army in New Zealand, and the unknown but significant number of officers who retired in the colony, it was their decision to stay and build civilian lives as soldier settlers in the colony. This thesis investigates three key themes in the histories of soldiers who became settlers: land, familial relationships, and livelihood. In doing so, the study develops an important area of settler colonialism in New Zealand history. Discussion covers the period from the first arrival of soldiers in the 1840s through to the early twentieth century – incorporating the span of the soldier settlers’ lifetimes. The study focuses on selected aspects of the history of nineteenth-century war and settlement. Land is examined through analysis of government statutes and reports, reminiscences, letters, and newspapers, the thesis showing how and why soldier settlers were assisted on to confiscated and alienated Māori land under the Waste Lands and New Zealand Settlement Acts. Attention is also paid to documenting the soldier settlers’ experiences of this process and its problems. Further, it discusses some of the New Zealand settlements in which military land grants were concentrated.
